Problems with print-to-disk in AW+

I have experienced the following problems with AW+ and would appreciate
hearing from anyone with related experience.

In AW, when I print to disk, I se ^B=0, ^T=0, ^L=0, and ^Y=0 to get no
page break and no left margin. IN AW+ I tried the same and got the
error message "invalid margin". When I reset ^Y=132, that error
message went away. It doesn't seem to be an appropriate error message,
but that's not too important.

But I seem to be unable to eliminate blank spaces skipped between
"pages". A ^H in the text really caused a problem, producing a header
and a page number (if was ignored in AW). Even when I removed the ^H,
I still got lots of blank lines. 

I guess I'll have to continue using AW unless somebody has a
suggestion.

Sincerely,
